Robbing Demon Gods

By now, all Three Thousand Demon Gods had been born. Some were strong, some weak; the strongest, like Pangu, was already close to attaining the Great Dao.

The weak ones were anomalies like Li Xinghe. Having transmigrated here in an ordinary mortal body, he had not even reached the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm. If not for Pangu's protection, he would have found it impossible to take a single step through Chaos.

The Creation Tribulation could erupt at any moment. When Pangu faced the Three Thousand Demon Gods, a small fry like him could lose his life at any time.

His top priority was to get some benefits from Pangu as soon as possible. Fortunately, this cheap big brother of his was very friendly toward Li Xinghe.

There were three thousand Great Daos, yet three thousand and one Demon Gods had suddenly appeared. Pangu had also sensed that the great tribulation was approaching. Even he risked perishing, and perhaps Li Xinghe would be the only variable.

"Big Brother, your little brother's spiritual intelligence has only just awakened, and I don't have a suitable cultivation technique," Li Xinghe said timidly.

"Second Brother, this is the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique. Cultivate it to the limit, and your body can become a saint." Pangu generously passed down his greatest skill to him.

"Bro, this technique cultivates a little slowly!"

"It's fine. Your elder brother will give you a few drops of essence blood."

"Bro, I've used up the essence blood. Give me some more!"

Pangu: "..."

The Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique had been created by Pangu. The Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique cultivated by the future Erlang Xiansheng True Lord Yang Jian was merely an incomplete version. Even so, Yang Jian had ultimately used it to achieve Body Becoming a Saint.

As for Pangu's Essence Blood, it was an absolute treasure among treasures. Aside from those ridiculously lucky protagonists in webnovels who often obtained it, Pangu's Essence Blood had virtually disappeared after Creation.

Even the future Twelve Ancestral Witches had merely taken form from twelve drops of Pangu's Essence Blood. One could imagine just how heaven-defying this stuff was.

But he was too weak to digest it at all, so he hid most of it away. Pangu saw through it but did not expose him.

Aside from his daily cultivation, Li Xinghe spent his time tinkering with his shovel.

The Merit power rewarded by the Great Dao had also been completely used up, allowing him to refine several Chaos Divine Prohibitions. He could now barely use it.

Yet whenever he looked at Pangu's three Chaos Supreme Treasures, which could both attack and defend, he could not help feeling envious.

"Big Brother, I'm still lacking a few handy weapons. This shovel isn't very easy to use." Li Xinghe began sweet-talking his cheap big brother again.

Pangu frowned. "Second Brother, the few treasures in my possession all serve great purposes. I can't give them to you."

It was not that he was unwilling to part with them. Rather, there was a fixed destiny at work in the unseen. Accompanying Spiritual Treasures were no trivial matter and would surely have great uses in the future.

Hearing that, Li Xinghe smiled slightly. He did not dare ask for those supreme treasures. They would be used to create the world in the future; he did not have the fortune for them, nor could he bear such Cause and Effect.

"There are plenty of good things in this Chaos World. Big Brother, take me around. Maybe we can find some treasures."

Just because Pangu's treasures were off-limits did not mean he would not take anyone else's. The Wheel of Time and Wheel of Destiny had both fused into Chaos Supreme Treasures, so the Accompanying Spiritual Treasures of the other big shots in Chaos could not be too shabby either.

They called it treasure hunting, but it was actually robbery. With Pangu, a gold-medal thug, at his side, anyone who refused could just be beaten up.

"Don't worry, Second Brother. If you take a liking to anything, Big Brother will snatch it for you." Pangu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Li Xinghe did not want his Accompanying Spiritual Treasures, everything was fine.

Since they were going to rob someone, they should start with the strongest. In Chaos, Ancestor Yang Mei was second only to Pangu and Daoist Shichen.

Moreover, that fellow had fled before the battle, causing the deaths of Daoist Shichen and the Lord of Destiny. Li Xinghe had inherited everything from those two Demon Gods, so naturally he had no favorable impression of him.

Not long afterward, the two swiftly traveled through Chaos. Only an expert like Pangu could ignore the pressure within Chaos. If Li Xinghe had been alone, he probably would have struggled even to move.

Within Chaos, a massive Hollow Willow was rooted in Chaos Spiritual Energy. The Laws of Space gathered around it. It was none other than Ancestor Yang Mei, the Space Demon God, who ranked second only to Pangu and Shichen among the Three Thousand Demon Gods.

"Big Brother, look over there. That seems to be a huge willow tree. It looks like a treasure." Li Xinghe used the Chaos Shovel to divine the location of the Space Demon God.

Sensing Pangu's arrival, Ancestor Yang Mei was startled. Back when Shichen and Destiny had sought him out, they had said that Pangu would slay the Three Thousand Demon Gods.

This isn't even the time Shichen and Destiny divined! Could it be that their deaths changed the original course of Destiny? The more Ancestor Yang Mei thought about it, the more something felt wrong.

The giant willow tore its roots from the ground and took off running, nearly scared out of its wits.

"Holy shit, Big Brother, that willow can run! It really is a treasure. Hurry and chase it!" Li Xinghe shouted, clearly pretending not to understand.

"Second Brother, that is Ancestor Yang Mei, the Space Demon God!" Pangu explained.

Li Xinghe naturally knew that, but he still said, "Big Brother, you're the boss of the Three Thousand Demon Gods. This fellow saw you and, instead of coming to pay his respects, turned tail and ran. That's far too disrespectful."

Although Pangu did not know what "boss" meant, Ancestor Yang Mei truly was being disrespectful, making him lose face before his second brother.

With that thought, he took one step forward and caught up to Ancestor Yang Mei.

"Pangu, I have neither grievance nor enmity with you. Why are you chasing me?" Ancestor Yang Mei ran even faster.

Pangu did not know how to answer. He could hardly say that he wanted to rob him!

"Space Demon God, why did you run the moment you saw my big brother? Did you do something guilty?" Fortunately, Li Xinghe was clever enough.

This made Ancestor Yang Mei even more horrified. Hadn't Shichen and Destiny both perished? Who the hell had leaked the news? Had his scheme with Time and Fate to plot against Pangu been exposed?

The Demon Gods throughout Chaos were all astonished. They had no idea what madness had seized Pangu or why he was chasing the Space Demon God.

Just as Ancestor Yang Mei was about to escape, Pangu swung his axe, directly severing the Laws of Space and leaving Ancestor Yang Mei with nowhere to hide.

Li Xinghe was also startled, afraid that Pangu would kill Yang Mei in one blow. He had not gotten enough benefits yet; if the Creation Tribulation began ahead of schedule, it would not be worth it.

"Yang Mei, my second brother has taken a liking to your branch. Give me a section of its essence, and I'll let you leave," Pangu said.

As fellow Demon Gods, he naturally knew what was most precious about Yang Mei. A single branch contained fragments of the Laws of Space and was comparable to a Chaos Spiritual Treasure.

Ancestor Yang Mei looked pained. Since Pangu had spoken, he could not brush him off. He had to offer up a branch from his core, or else he feared Pangu would dig up even his roots.

Not long afterward, Li Xinghe left contentedly with a Hollow Willow Branch in hand.

"Next, Chaos!"

Among the Three Thousand Demon Gods of Chaos, excluding Pangu, the anomaly, Daoist Shichen ranked first, Ancestor Yang Mei second, and the Lord of Destiny third.

After them came Chaos, Cause and Effect, Creation, Destruction, Yin and Yang, Five Elements, and Reincarnation.

Under the Chaos Shovel's deductions, Li Xinghe quickly dug out a passage through Chaos and found Chaos's aura.

Chaos was also utterly dumbfounded. He had just been watching Ancestor Yang Mei's drama, and in the next instant, the trouble had landed right in his face.

Fortunately, he had learned his lesson. He did not run, though he was also relying on the power of the Chaos Pearl. Even if he was no match for Pangu, it would not be easy for Pangu to kill him.

"Pangu, what brings you here?" Chaos asked, feigning calmness.

This time, Pangu said nothing and simply looked at Li Xinghe. Li Xinghe could come up with the reason; Pangu only needed to handle the fighting.

Li Xinghe scratched his head. These Demon Gods were really single-minded. Why did robbery need a reason?

But to preserve Pangu's image, he could only ask, "Do you dip your dumplings in soy sauce?"

Chaos froze. "What?"

What were dumplings? And what was soy sauce? Should he say he dipped them in soy sauce or not?

"Fine! Big Brother, he's never even eaten dumplings. Beat him up!" Without another word, Li Xinghe took the lead, raising his shovel and charging forward.

He was only putting on a show anyway. Pangu would definitely not let Li Xinghe get beaten up, so he immediately followed, though he had no idea what dumplings or soy sauce were either.

"Great Dao above, can someone tell me whether dumplings should be dipped in soy sauce or not?!" Chaos cursed as he fled on the Chaos Pearl.
